THE FUNDAMENTALS AND METRICS OF SAAS
This guide will introduce you to the essential metrics and methods of starting a
Software-as-a-Service business, including what’s often overlooked.
We’ve broken it up into 3 steps:

SOME METRICS WE’LL COVER
IN THIS GUIDE:
"If you cannot measure
it, you cannot improve
it”
– Lord Kelvin, devised the
absolute temperature scale
STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS
THE PERCENTAGE OF CUSTOMERS WHO LEFT YOUR SERVICE IN A GIVEN PERIOD
@AMPLIFYLA
Trying to add more users to counter a high churn rate is like trying fix a leaky
bucket by adding more water – you need to patch up the hole

LIFETIME VALUE (LTV)

CAC =
Acquisition Spending
# Customers Acquired from Marketing
LTV =
Recurring Revenue
Churn Rate
LTV : CAC RATIO
LTV > CAC
A ratio of at least 3 is important for growing
companies beginning large marketing
campaigns.
☑
@AMPLIFYLA5
STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS
EARLY-STAGE LIFETIME VALUE
For early stage companies, LTV might not be a reliable metric since your early churn
rate may not be accurate. To account for this, using a conservative fixed number of
months (e.g. 36 months) to recalibrate your LTV:
Early-stage LTV =
1 - (1 - Churn Rate)36
Churn Rate

QUICK RATIO MAGIC NUMBER

DEFINITION
KEY STATS
4
A Quick Ratio of 4 is often a
benchmark investors looking at high
growth SaaS companies
0.5 - 1.0
If it’s greater than 1, you should accelerate growth
@AMPLIFYLA
QR =
New MRR + Expansion MRR
Churned MRR + Contraction MRR
How much of your business is growth
compared to your churned revenue
MN =
(QRR2 - QRR1) x 4
Marketing Expenses During Quarter
A Quick Ratio of 3 would mean that for every
dollar lost in a month, 3 dollars are added
DEFINITION
Indicates the health of your company from the
perspective of growing quarterly recurring revenue
EXAMPLE
A Magic Number of 3 would mean that for
every dollar lost in a month, 3 dollars are
added
If it’s less than 0.5, rethink your marketing strategy

CMGR measures the periodic growth of a
company (new subscribers, revenue, etc.)
DEFINITION
The percentage of active users after 1 week of
subscribing or installing
9
STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS
CMGR =
Latest Month
First Month )( - 1
1/# of Months
“Using CMGR also helps you
benchmark growth rates with
other companies”
– Jeff Jordan, General Partner at
Andreessen Horowitz
"Week 1 Retention (W1) has one
of the biggest impacts on your
retention over time"
– Brian Balfour, VP Growth, Hubspot
Up to 80% of users typically stop engaging with
your service just within the first week of signup
Engaging as many users as possible during that
critical first week is essential to keeping
exponentially more active users a month or
year after signup
STEP 2: METRIC DECOMPOSITION
Choosing Key Metrics
Not all metrics are created equal. Depending on the
size and stage of your company, certain metrics will
provide more value and insight into your business than
others. For example, if your business was founded two
months ago, tracking Lifetime Value (LTV) might not
make sense. For smaller and growing companies,
account churn can indicate your business’s overall
health.
Metric Components
Break down your top level metrics into their
underlying components. For example, Customer
Acquisition Cost (CAC) can be broken down into your
total marketing expenses and your new acquired
customers. Net new customers can be broken down
into new, churned, and unsuccessfully on-boarded
customers.
Breaking down your metrics allows you to create a
model that enables you to visualize your traction by
tracing back from a top level metric back to its
component parts.

  • 2. AGENDA NOT ALL METRICS ARE CREATED EQUAL CHURN RATE, CUSTOMER ACQUISITION COST, LIFETIME VALUE... HOW TO KEEP CUSTOMERS COMING BACK TO YOUR SITE STEP 2: METRIC DECOMPOSITION STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS STEP 3: MARKETING STRATEGIES @AMPLIFYLA THE FUNDAMENTALS AND METRICS OF SAAS This guide will introduce you to the essential metrics and methods of starting a Software-as-a-Service business, including what’s often overlooked. We’ve broken it up into 3 steps: 2
  • 3. STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS @AMPLIFYLA3 CHURN RATE CAC LTV LTV : CAC EARLY-STAGE LTV QUICK RATIO MAGIC NUMBER SOME METRICS WE’LL COVER IN THIS GUIDE: "If you cannot measure it, you cannot improve it” – Lord Kelvin, devised the absolute temperature scale
  • 4. STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS THE PERCENTAGE OF CUSTOMERS WHO LEFT YOUR SERVICE IN A GIVEN PERIOD @AMPLIFYLA Trying to add more users to counter a high churn rate is like trying fix a leaky bucket by adding more water – you need to patch up the hole Sales Targets Subscribers Repays Repays Repays {Conversion Rate Churn Rate { 4 CHURN RATE
  • 5. CUSTOMER ACQUISITION COST CAC LTV HOW MUCH IT COSTS TO MOTIVATE YOUR CUSTOMER TO SUBSCRIBE LIFETIME VALUE (LTV) THE NET PROFIT ONE CUSTOMER PRODUCES CAC = Acquisition Spending # Customers Acquired from Marketing LTV = Recurring Revenue Churn Rate LTV : CAC RATIO LTV > CAC A ratio of at least 3 is important for growing companies beginning large marketing campaigns. ☑ @AMPLIFYLA5 STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS
  • 6. EARLY-STAGE LIFETIME VALUE For early stage companies, LTV might not be a reliable metric since your early churn rate may not be accurate. To account for this, using a conservative fixed number of months (e.g. 36 months) to recalibrate your LTV: Early-stage LTV = 1 - (1 - Churn Rate)36 Churn Rate @AMPLIFYLA6 SOURCE: JEFF BUSSGANG STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS
  • 7. QUICK RATIO MAGIC NUMBER EXAMPLE KEY STATS DEFINITION KEY STATS 4 A Quick Ratio of 4 is often a benchmark investors looking at high growth SaaS companies 0.5 - 1.0 If it’s greater than 1, you should accelerate growth @AMPLIFYLA QR = New MRR + Expansion MRR Churned MRR + Contraction MRR How much of your business is growth compared to your churned revenue MN = (QRR2 - QRR1) x 4 Marketing Expenses During Quarter A Quick Ratio of 3 would mean that for every dollar lost in a month, 3 dollars are added DEFINITION Indicates the health of your company from the perspective of growing quarterly recurring revenue EXAMPLE A Magic Number of 3 would mean that for every dollar lost in a month, 3 dollars are added If it’s less than 0.5, rethink your marketing strategy 7 STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS

  • 9. COMPOUNDED MONTHLY GROWTH RATE WEEK 1 RETENTION DEFINITION @AMPLIFYLA CMGR measures the periodic growth of a company (new subscribers, revenue, etc.) DEFINITION The percentage of active users after 1 week of subscribing or installing 9 STEP 1: TRACK KEY METRICS CMGR = Latest Month First Month )( - 1 1/# of Months “Using CMGR also helps you benchmark growth rates with other companies” – Jeff Jordan, General Partner at Andreessen Horowitz "Week 1 Retention (W1) has one of the biggest impacts on your retention over time" – Brian Balfour, VP Growth, Hubspot Up to 80% of users typically stop engaging with your service just within the first week of signup Engaging as many users as possible during that critical first week is essential to keeping exponentially more active users a month or year after signup
  • 10. STEP 2: METRIC DECOMPOSITION Choosing Key Metrics Not all metrics are created equal. Depending on the size and stage of your company, certain metrics will provide more value and insight into your business than others. For example, if your business was founded two months ago, tracking Lifetime Value (LTV) might not make sense. For smaller and growing companies, account churn can indicate your business’s overall health. Metric Components Break down your top level metrics into their underlying components. For example, Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) can be broken down into your total marketing expenses and your new acquired customers. Net new customers can be broken down into new, churned, and unsuccessfully on-boarded customers. Breaking down your metrics allows you to create a model that enables you to visualize your traction by tracing back from a top level metric back to its component parts.
